In the 210 I have to stick with No Ordinary Joe 10/1
Ran well at Cheltenham and if it's got over that run then it shouldnt be far away.

In the race after the Topham I've backed BLENKINSOP 30/1 ew on the exchange.
I cant understand why it's running in this instead of the 3 mile hcap where he would have had a good chance off 131.
Got to find a bit on figures but is progressive.

Topham chase is just as hard as the National.
BURROWS SAINT has a lot of weight and I'm not sure the drop to 2m 5f will suit but has to be on the short list.
I backed GESSKILLE both times he finished 2nd over these fences and should go well again.
A few others are on my long list including EQUUS DANCER trained by Peter Bowen who trained Mac Tottie to win for me last year.
I've backed 2 in the race
FANTASTIKA I took 33/1 and its blue across the board tonight.
It ran well although well beaten in the Becher chase and this distance should suit better.now 13lb lower.
But the main one for me is a mare.
FANTASTIC LADY 40/1 BETFAIR sportsbook
Last year in this race P.Bowen had 2 horses .the winner ridden by Sean Bowen and the other by B.Powell instead of James Bowen as he was claimed by Hendo for Fantastc Lady and it ran well until the first fence and he fell off.this race has been the plan since and Nico takes over tomorrow.

NO LOOKING BACK 14/1 3rd race.
Beat Brazil in a 2 horse race.its a wide open race.loooks a decent price for my ew yankee.

No ordinary joe
Fantastic lady
No looking back
Blenkinsop
 
The form I noticed for No looking Back is his last run.

Giving Irish point 9Lbs and beaten just over a length. That one is rated 142. On the book, that would make NLB on 150. Maybe too literal but it seems to be well handicapped, I think.

Trainer 3 wins from last 5 runners, too.
